I start graduate school in the fall and have begun searching for an agency for field internship. I'm concerned about my medical marijuana use and agency drug testing. I have severe insomnia, for which traditional sleep medications have been of little help. I've taken too much ambien for too long, and it's not even effective. I began taking medical marijuana around a year ago, and it's incredibly effective. I'm aware that many agencies require drug tests, but I'm uncertain if any are tolerant of medical marijuana licenses. I stopped taking medical marijuana a few days ago to try to rid it from my system as soon as possible in case I need to test soon, and every night since has been intolerable. If possible, I desperately need to resume medicating at night before sleep.
Does anyone have experience with field intern drug testing in California, particularly as it pertains to medical marijuana?
